As you see ,they arent "sharp" ,and are not even as black as they should ,look terrible. And they look like that in whole system not just in particular programs.
I tried to "repair" them ,but no luck. Can someone point me what should i do? I know that autohinting or subpikxel could help but i dont know where/how turn it on/off.

While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

Thanks for answering. The version is XI.0.10. I just did the update yesterday hoping that I could now properly edit a scanned pdf document. Yes, it's happening on most all scanned documents. I followed your steps & found the list of fonts used in the document & then attempted to edit. The same occurs. When I type in a correction, I get an error alert... "the original font (in this case Fd 5805) is not available or can't be used in editing. Acrobat is using the font Minion Pro in its place."
When I select the text & right click as you suggested, my only choices are cut, copy, delete or select all, no "edit text".
I have no other options to choose another font. Thanks for any help you can direct my way.

created by sukritd15 in Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs - View the full discussionHi Deborah , I would like to know couple of things before I assist you further.1.Which version of Acrobat are you using ?2.Is it happening for all the scanned PDF' or any particular PDF? You can try these steps,Launch the scanned PDF >right click >Document Properties(from the drop down list) >Fonts(on the dialog box)>From here you will get the fonts used in that PDF . While editing the PDF ,select the text that are editing or typing in with the help of selection tool .After you select the text ,right click on the text and choose "edit text" from the drop down list .From there you will be able to choose the desired font .

E65 ugly fonts

Hi,
I have a E65 telephone which I bought off ebay. I believe its a chineese version.
My wife bought a E65 from Thailand.
Both phones work reasonably well, but one thing I have noticed is the fonts on mine look very ugly - I believe they are not aliased like the ones on my wife.
Is there any known work around?
Sean

The phones made in China (marked 'made by Nokia') have these less nice looking fonts. Phones made in Finland have the nicer looking fonts and are available in all European markets. No way around this I'm afraid.
When a flash image is available for this phone, perhaps it will be possible to re-flash an Asian phone with a Euro image - who knows...

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Thank you very much.

It is a upstream problem in openoffice.org, it doesn't obey your anti-aliasing or hinting options under freetype 2.2
This will be fixed in openoffice.org 2.1
I have tried to backport a fedora fix for this, and I tried it with my OpenOffice 2.0.4rc3 build from aur but it didn't build. Even if it did build it would probably break some other stuff.
I guess we have to wait for a better patch of openoffice 2.1
In any case, it is definitely not a problem with your installation.

UGLY font rendering in Firefox

Hello, my font rendering in Firefox is very ugly. I don't know what to do
I installed ttf-google-fonts-git and also put 70-no-bitmaps.conf in my /etc/fonts/conf.d/ directory but this doesn't change anything. I reinstalled ttf-google-fonts-git and firefox but nothing.

Very strange thing after 10.7.3 update?

Very strange thing after 10.7.3 update?
Everything seems to be working normal except the desk top BBC iPlayer which plays fine in a small window but when you go to full screen still plays the sound but the screen just goes black, no video?
I thought maybe the update knocked off one of the plugins or players but reinstalled iPlayer and same problem, anyone got a workaround or suggestion as to how I can fix it, am I the only one?
Full screen YouTube works fine.
Everything else seems ok, maybe running a little hotter and the fans are kicking in a little sooner but does feel a little snappier.
Thanks
Phil

Seems like they are on it

sounds like you broke the display when you dropped it. There's nothing we users here can do for you.
Since the iPhone warranty does not cover accidental damage, you will have to pay to have your phone repaired or replaced. You can bring it into Apple for an out of warranty exchange in the country of purchase, or you can find a 3rd party iPhone repair store in your area.

Severely ugly fonts in openjdk6 from testing

I have been using icedtea6 from AUR for months now and I just replaced it with openjdk6 from testing. icedtea6 had ugly fonts, but openjdk6 has severely ugly fonts. It's not too horrible with regular fonts, but it is with bold. A good test is the Font2DTest:
java -jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk/demo/jfc/Font2DTest/Font2DTest.jar
Does anyone know whether it's possible yet to get good fonts in openjdk6? If so, how?
Last edited by skottish (2008-08-04 18:30:19)

Problem is still here in openjdk6, not in jre/jdk.
I think it is related to: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=495988
Our fontconfig.properties.src is correct, but we have no compilefontconfig.jar, so I cannot try what the bug reporter mentioned, "java -jar compilefontconfig.jar fontconfig.config fontconfig.bfc".
In Ubuntu, they added that file in 6b10-1: "* Install compilefontconfig.jar in openjdk-6-jre-lib package."
Should we have that file?

[SOLVED] Ugly fonts in KDE plamoids

I'm running KDE 4.8 on my Arch 64 box and I've had for a while now ugly fonts in all the plasma widgets I'm running. All the other fonts look nice and smooth in all other places, eg. GTK and QT apps etc. but plasma widget fonts aren't as smooth for some reason. I'm using the infinality patches with the "UBUNTU" setting currently. Any heads up on would be nice...
Many Thanks

Dont use the first advice, because you will lose the advantages of raster system system wide. Raster system is faster than native, so apps are snappier with it. The second method is better

Ugly fonts in all qt programs

Recently all my qt programs (even qtconfig itself) has ugly fonts.
It must be some new packages but I dont know which.
I already tired to remove ~/.fonts.conf to restore the defaults, but it remains the same.
Can anyone help?

I managed to fix the problem. I created the file "~/.fonts.conf" with
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
<const>hintfull</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
and then entered:
fc-cache -vf
and the problem is now resolved.

Ugly fonts in evince

Noticed that evince shows ugly fonts for some pdfs, while okular renders them fine. Any way to fix that?

Hi,
This is because of a known bug with poppler. They say it will be fixed in poppler 0.14. If you want to patch the current version of poppler you can use one of the patches here:
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5589
Use "makepkg -o" with the poppler PKGBUILD, apply the patch in the src directory, then do "makepkg -e". This will rebuild poppler, poppler-glib, and poppler-qt packages. For evince, you need to install poppler and poppler-glib.
I was able to patch and build poppler and poppler-glib 0.12.4 with patch #31683, but I had to fix one hunk by hand. This solved the rendering problem.
Or, you can just wait for the updated version of poppler and use xpdf until then. xpdf doesn't have this problem.
